Estimating the contribution of genes and environment to variation in renal drug clearance

Renal excretion is the major pathway for elimination of many clinically used drugs and xenobiotics. We estimated the genetic component (rGC) contributing to variation in renal clearance for six compounds (amoxicillin, ampicillin, metformin, terodiline, digoxin and iohexol) using Repeated Drug Applic
